“Julie Mallet-Paret cuts to the real heart of the matter. Their firm but kind hand will lead you to where you want to go, and where you need to go, even when those are two different places.”

“Julie is great at cutting through to what the read should sound like for you - I consistently get out of the box and insightful feedback on reads and get pushed in ways that can't help but make me grow. They foster a safe and warm space where I'm not afraid to cut loose - Directors of this caliber are few and far between!”
— M. T.
“Julie helped coach me for a musical theatre callback which required a German accent (which I ended up booking)! Julie was wonderful at both explaining the general tonal traits of the accent, while also giving me the specific tools needed so I could nail my callback slides. Julie is kind, patient, and very knowledgeable and I'd recommend them to anyone!”

“Julie has been a wonderful coach for voice over and on-screen. When I would have trouble breaking down a script or varying my takes, they would step in and give me guidance on nuances in the script that elevated my reads. They have a genuine passion for the craft that inspires the people around them to grow. I recommend them for anyone wanting to take their craft to the next level!”
